Better Recycling

CR Reflects On The Perspectives Class

6thgrader — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 15:57:29 +0000

Q1: What have you done to change your school?
A1: AM and I have educated children in our school about recycling to hopefully encourage them to recycle more. My group and I have made this blog to educate others about recycling and to show others what we have been doing.
Q2: What have you learned?
A2:I have learned that not enough people recycle. I have also learned that if we dont start recycling quickly we will increase global warming and we are “killing” the world.
Q3: Where do we still need to improve as a school?
A3: We still dont recycle enough cans and most of us do not take the time to recycle. We are getting better by putting recycling bins in the cafeteria. We have been changing the lights, adding recycling bins, and doing things to reduce the energy use. As a school we are relizing the down side of not recycling and trying to fix it.

The Impact of Global Warming

The day has finally come. The country’s recycling neglegence has finally

lead us to a flip flop wearin’ February!

It may appear that our desperate attempt to recycle is too late.

But all hope is not lost, we can still save the

planet. If you can manage, pay the couple of bucks and put your “trash”

back into the mainstream.
